infinity2005 posted:I don't even understand the American audience in regards to dance music. Previously the complaint heard the most that 'techno is all repetitive', then of all the possibilities midrange dubstep, electro-house and Deadmau5 is the only thing that gains any popularity? Marketing/exposure must be the problem, if you introduce fans of this stuff to other things i find people generally receptive; they just have no will to go out of their way and find anything else on their own. You're spittin' so much truth here, it's kinda ridiculous.

thepopstalinist posted:I'm just unfortunate enough to live in the Midwest, which might as well be Wob central. LA, Chicago, Atlanta, Philly, NYC, all have creative and vibrant local scenes. And with producers like Araabmusik there's more opportunity for them to cross over into the pop realm (though it's more likely that rappers and the like will be going for the filthy stuff). Where in the Midwest are you? 'Cause I can relate to the whole "unfortunate" thing.

Just got back from the Skream & Benga show...and it was dope as hell. I took some pics of the crowd and stuff. I'll post them up later. Even got to shake Benga's hand and tell him he spun a dope show. Was anyone else that posts here and lives in the Chicago area there?

Styliferous posted:Did they spin individual sets, or was it two hours of them working together? I'm going to see them at Fall Massive in DC next month and I'm hoping for the latter. I heard Skream dropped Left Leg Out last night, hopefully he'll play at least one track by DMZ in DC. They were together for a couple hours...and one of the other DMZ dudes was with them. It was that one dude that looks a lot like Mala, or it was Mala himself MC'ing. They spun a great show...hell, every DJ that was there spun some dope poo poo.

Shots from Skream & Benga at The Mid in Chicago, IL (10-19-2011) Crowd shot from the balcony...this is how it SHOULD look.  Another crowd shot from the balcony...tried to include the DJ booth this time.  Ventured into the crowd for some better shots...Skream, everyone!  Benga havin' a Zen Moment, or somethin'...  Gettin' the crowd more hype!  Skream also havin' a Zen Moment... I also managed to record a couple small clips of their set. Clip 1, and Clip 2. Enjoy it, y'all.

So, I brought my subwoofer + speaker set to work and was blastin' "Safe or Sorry" - Vaski...and this customer that came in thought it was Skrillex. That worries me. Anyways, I wrote down what the track was (I'm not the music elitist type) and gave it to him to find on his own and told him to not even worry about Skrillex. That's another thing altogether though. Peeps need to stop being sheisty with good music. You sit there and complain about these kids hopping on a genre you enjoy via some producer that you may not enjoy, but rather than share and broaden their horizons, you just sit on all of your own good poo poo and laugh at them because "they just won't ever know". How does that help anything?

I'm glad there's all this discussion about Juke...one of my managers at work was really into it, and was happy to hear it's making some kind of comeback when I told him that some Juke poo poo was dropped at that Skream & Benga show I was at (though, if I remember correctly, I think it was DJ Solo that dropped it). I didn't even know about these footwork battles though, I'll have to ask him about it.

I think the only think I'm lacking there is the Mos Def remix, Freez and Skream's Acid People(to my eternal shame I have very little Big Apple stuff, though in my defense they were always hard to find). Wow, that "Said the Spider" track is drat good. Shame I hadn't heard it when it originally came out.

28 Gun Bad Boy posted:I figure he means having a wav as the source of a hosted, online mix(i.e. Soundcloud) is a bit overkill in general, given the fact 99% of the time it's just going to be played on a computer so a 320kb thing is good enough. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if Soundcloud or wherever chops it down to an mp3 and compresses it down anyhow. Everything Maguro/Chump Change posts on his Soundcloud is WAV. I have to convert 'em to MP3 just so I can listen to them outside of my laptop. (NOTE TO MAGURO: This is not me bitching about your methods. You're just the only person I subscribe to that does that, is all.)

I guess I will start doing it from now on though, my friends in Estonia were complaining that it takes forever for them to download a tune haha. Oh yeah, I've been meaning to ask...is your screen name here a reference to the Sega Genesis game, "Ristar"?

thepopstalinist posted:I'm sure you'll be thrilled to learn that in interviews he's specifically talked up a love for the 90's Warp roster. Which makes sense - outside of Big Beat stuff, the rockist mainstream press in the US from the 90's on up through the nascent bloghaus era only really covered IDM when it came to electronic music, largely because it was a curiosity and because of Chris Cunningham's eye-catching music videos. It's certainly how I got into electronic music despite being from the middle of bumfuck nowhere. And yet...loving SKRILLEX is the one with FIVE Grammy nominations. Heaven forbid what'll happen to the genre in the states if he WINS any of 'em.

Mike_V posted:Yeah. I'm really interested to see how this tour is received. I believe last time Benga toured the US, he was backed up with a lot of really bro-y dudes like Noisia and other poo poo. As far as I know, Skream + Benga play a lot of really bro stuff, but not on the same level. Also, I am interested to see how Jackmaster is received. Jakes is part of the bill, too, and I didn't realize he DJd. It was dope when I saw Skream and Benga last year, but the most interesting DJ that was there was the one that opened JUST before them, DJ Solo.

The variation in his sound was refreshing since I'm one of those "true dubstep" types as mentioned in this review of his album. Reso is one of the best producers puttin' out music today, no doubt. Met him last year and he was chill as hell. But yeah, definitely give more of his stuff a listen.

28 Gun Bad Boy posted:...EZ's Pure Garage mixes really take me back. The occassional bit of pure bait stuff in there (hey they were out on Warner's so what do you expect?), but still a load of nice stuff mixed-up. On saying that he did do that Bass, Breaks & Beats mix which was fantastic, full of the darker stuff and that kinda proto-Grime kinda thing. First link was alright. I appreciate the historical value of the track. Second link, the remix...I was feelin' that one a bit more. Third link...drat nice! Gonna try to check out those compilations more. I listened to a few tracks off of the Blackmarkets and enjoyed what I heard, so I'm sure I'll like the full package on both of those. Excited to check out the Sound of the Pirates mixes as well! Mike V - That track you posted is some dope poo poo! Definitely closer to what I like. JamesKPolk - That live mix was a banger...I love that there's so much use of 90's R&B throwbacks in this style. And to think I'd actually not be driven mad by hearing Brandy and Monica singing "The Boy Is Mine" after hearing it get spammed to hell when it initially came out. drat. So...There's this fighting game series called "Melty Blood" and in the latest version, "Actress Again" (Japan...that's really all I can say to that), there's this airport stage that has this interesting track called "Raven's Nest". What do y'all think? I was feelin' it when I heard it. Wish I could find a listenable version of "Neighbourhood 09 (Solution Remix)" for you guys, because I LOVE that version of the song (the El-B version is dope, too.), but alas, no dice. "Pure Garage" and "Has It Come To This?" by The Streets were my poo poo back when they dropped. "Believe Me (Nixus Remix)" by Blu Mar Ten is also a personal favorite... Now, to check out the stuff in the OP, and that DJ EZ mix you dropped. Riot.EXE fucked around with this message at 04:35 on Feb 8, 2013 |
